This is to try answer some of the threads looking for travel alternatives because of the ash cloud. If anyone has any other ideas, please add them.
Bus options:
Eurolines operate coaches euro wide.
You can then connect with bus eireann service in London.
But looks like they are booking up fast too.
Trains:
- onward euro trave.
Eurostar - book online & only go to station if confirmed, booking out fast.
[broken link removed] - includes TGV trains through France.
Ferry options:
[broken link removed] still has some car space & limited foot passanger space.
[broken link removed] operating normally - still have car & foot passanger space.
[broken link removed]- have not updated press releases nor their news section. Very odd!
Facebook:
This site has been set up - When Volcanoes Erupt: A Survival Guide for Stranded Travelers
It is linking up people who have car space on ferries, willing to hire car & share costs by driving across various counties in Europe or offers from those who have a spare room. Might be needed if this goes on and you are running low on funds for accommodation.
Carpool Europe - as it says, matching people looking for / willing to drive around europe.
